Hey guys. This guy just tried do strike now, about 6 hours ago. He had be trying to gain mine and my friend`s trust since the last week. He actually got to sleep in my friends house, where he took the keys from his home theater room. He claimed his name was Kareem(same phonetics as Sareek, as said in earlier posts, and all that stuff of "diplomatic advantages"). He said his money-making source was importing and selling electronics like Iphones and Ipads. He forgot his bag at my friend`s house, and we found a law suit(not sure this is the right term) where he was accused in Spain of theft, but he ran do Brazil. We went to a police department instantly, and we found that he is in fact accused of larceny, theft and armed robbery. He will just keep doing this; he won`t stop. I`m sorry if I am violating this Forum`s rules here, but I think we should move this link and let people know who he is in a more comprehensive way. To be clear I think we should all post things and this link in bigger networks(FB,twt, etc). He seems not to be dangerous or represent considerable threat, as he is nothing but a rat. Probably a sociopath. As the policeman told us here, he is somewhat "clean". Although there are denounces of his criminal behaviour, he cannot be arrested unless if it is flagrant(not sure about the word either), and he won`t stay in jail for long if that happens. Hope I help you guys to avoid this parasite.

@titilhoBR, thanks for posting!

I am the guy who posted the original report on this guy. i posted to hostelthief.blogspot.com... but google took the site down. Luckily, the page was mirrored here and a few other places.

If someone is good with webpages, maybe they can make a freshone where we can keep this guy's info and location updated.

A Brazilian that knows the system must be able to figure out how we can catch this guy! I dont understand if he is already wanted for robbery, why dont they arrest him?

keep posting guys, i hope we catch him!

then I'm glad my post was mirrored before google took it down. Legal or not, the word needs to get out on this scum bag who preys on the kindness of travelers.

@titilhoBR

Where did it happen?
Do you have any ideia of where he might have gone after he left?

People, specially you rafaelmsc, I really don't think we need to be scared of him, on the contrary, I think it is our "duty" to keep up with this duscussions here, beacuse I know that someday, somehow, somewhat he will pop up closer enough to me so I can reach him and finally have my personal revenge... that is what I want the most... but better if he goes to jail once and for all...

So titilhoBR, give us more information, location, etc.
